5 March '03 : Seen the success (and the size) of the windows installer, the server get difficulties feeding everyone at the
best pace, so you can download the windows full installer from here instead. This mirror were provided courtesy of Bt
Garner.
The download system will be improved so that you'll be able to choose a mirror on the principal download page for the
next release.
4 March '03 : Hu-Go! 2.10 is publicly available !
This version features a real gui using gtk. It is available as binary packages for debian, redhat/mandrake
and windows and the sources works for Linux, Windows and FreeBSD at least.
Lots of improvements have been made. You can zoom in window mode, or use the new fullscreen engine.
The graphics emulation have been improved, crashing less games and the sound have also underwent a vast
lifting, with the arrival of stereo mode and a perfect sound/noise engine.
The windows version benefits a totally rewritten CD code and audio reading (as it was impossible to
play CDs under windows since version 2.00) while the UN*X enjoys the SDL support for joypads.
Developpers can recompile their version of hugo and enjoy the remote control of the emulation (yes, you can
totally control the variables of the internals of the emulated pc engine).
This version was done thanks to many contributors, especially Ixion and Black-. Cleaner took care of the
FreeBSD adaptation, Zoop and Valérie Tching spotted some bugs, and much more people also helped ...
All of this sign the coming back of Hu-Go! in an active state after a period of calm :) So do the same,
come and see the pc engine scene and don't hesitate to involve yourself in it.
The next Hu-Go! release should focus on game compatibility and network support, as usual, stay tuned ...
